Self-Control With Trigger Foods
This is the problem I have that is most disturbing to me: I have certain trigger foods - chocolate, chips, doritos, nuts, cookies - and, if I have a bag or package of them available, I cannot stop eating them. I would literally be obsessing over them until all of it is gone. Usually, I just don't buy any of them so I don't have them available. However, sometimes I really want a certain food and I decide that I will work really hard to control myself... but I, again, end up eating some... then wanting more.. then more.. then decide that I have eaten so much I might as well finish it off because it would be gone.
Has anyone successfully been able to overcome this? or is the only solution to make sure I am never alone with a bag of chocolates again?
